Jack Brady, the son of Tom Brady and his former partner Bridget Moynahan, turns 17 today and his father is over the moon. With a beautiful collection of photos, the former NFL player, who turned 47 earlier this month, honors his tall teenager, the eldest of three children.
Tom showed how much Jack inherited from him, including his love of football and golf and his ripped physique, which is impressive considering Jack is almost the same height as his 6’4″ football-playing father.
“Happy 17th birthday to the kindest, sweetest, most thoughtful 17-year-old I know,” the 47-year-old former quarterback wrote under a carousel. “You are truly a blessing in my life and I am so grateful to watch you grow into a young man.”
Brady continued, “Your love for family, friends, school, sports, hard work and dedication to everything you put your energy into are just some of your amazing qualities. I love spending every minute with you and I cherish our time together. These are all things I love most about you,” he concluded.
“My least favorite part is that you can now beat me one-on-one (eye roll and laughing emojis). I love you always and forever, happy birthday dad.”
Brady has no problem boasting about his son’s athletic abilities; just a year ago, he showed off Jack’s graceful jump shot. He also allowed Jack to practice quarterback during a Tampa Bay session in 2022 when he was still a member of the Bucs. It’s unclear if Jack plans to pursue his skills at the college level, but it’s obvious that the GOAT genes run deep in his family.
Brady spoke to Page Six and said that he has a lot of things on his mind, but he tries his best to be a great father and be there for his children. He mentioned the difficulties that come with successfully raising a child and that he hopes all children appreciate their parents too, as they work very hard to make their lives a little easier. When asked if his children dictate his life, he immediately replied, “Yes, absolutely!”
After traveling to Paris with his children for the Olympics, the former New England Patriots player stopped by Fanatics Fest in New York City and talked about the difficulties of being a good father.
